5.0 classic
Gentle Giant Octopus
Gentle Giant The Power and the Glory
Long John Baldry It Ain't Easy
The father of the English blues scenes backed by Elton John, Rod Stewert and Ronnie Wood and it comes together perfectly.
Opeth Blackwater Park
Opeth Lamentations
Opeth Watershed
Pelican The Fire in Our Throats Will Beckon...
This album took the idea of space within music and crafted a set of songs that actually convey depth: you actually hear where an instrument is playing in the soundscape rather than just what it's playing.
The Chambers Brothers The Time Has Come
This is a must-hear stop in your tour of rock history.
Wobbler Afterglow
It's as though Gentle Giant was transplanted into 2009.

4.5 superb
Diablo Swing Orchestra Sing-Along Songs for the Damned & Delirious
Mastodon Crack the Skye
Opeth Deliverance

4.0 excellent
Opeth Ghost Reveries
Opeth The Roundhouse Tapes

3.0 good
Riverside Rapid Eye Movement
The guitar tones and the general mixing in this album make the music feel washed out and muddy, so a lot of the intensity is lost. The keyboard effects really crowd the spaces between instruments and washes away the friction and tension the songs otherwise would have had.

2.5 average
Killswitch Engage Killswitch Engage
This is definitely not a step forward for the band. The album has some fun riffs and then some seriously boring ones, as per all Killswitch albums.

2.0 poor
Dinosaur Jr. Farm
"It's a lazy, noisy, hour long jaunt." This sums up the album perfectly. It's as conventional as conventional gets with a few cursory guitar solos added in exactly where you'd expect them. These guys really could have toned down the gain and sustain to let the guitar work breathe a little. As is, it just feels like dense chord after dense chord occasionally mixed under an equally dense solo.
